It’s an ideal time to kick back and relax instead of cooking yourself a full meal – and with the weather forecast to be cooling down, you might want to skip the idea of a picnic and order in some comfort food classics.
This May Bank Holiday also coincides with glorious VE Day celebrations, even more reason to order something from McDonald’s, Greggs, or KFC and check out what’s going on.
People across the country will be treating themselves to beer garden outings, barbecues, and maybe even a meal from their favourite fast food restaurant.
